NEC Announces BlueFire 10 Gigabit Ethernet Card

NEC America introduced a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) card that matches its BlueFire 740 and 750 LAN backbone switches. NEC said an enterprise could use the 10 GbE solution to take advantage of existing dark fiber within metropolitan Ethernet environments for traffic aggregation and transport within a campus or metropolitan area. The BlueFire 740 and 750 are Layer 2/3 Ethernet switches with hardware-based QoS capability and support for IPv4 and IPv6 in hardware with two-way tunneling and translation.
